Dr. Houda HAFI pursued her Ph.D. studies in computer science at the University of Abdelhamid Mehri, Constantine, Algeria, and the Engineering School Polytech (Ex-ESIREM), Dijon, France. She received her Ph.D. in 2019. She is currently an Associate Professor at the Faculty of New Information and Communication Technologies at the University of Abdelhamid Mehri. Her research and teaching have been consistently focused on the field of networking, encompassing areas such as network engineering, communication networks, and related subjects. Her ongoing research centers on wireless communications, vehicular and mobile networks, and the application of AI, machine learning, and distributed learning techniques in networking domain. Dr. Bouziane Brik, received his Engineer degree (Ranked First) in computer science, MSc degree and Ph.D from Laghouat University, Algeria. He is currently working as Assistant Professor in Computer Science ,department of Computing and Informatics College, at Sharjah university, UAE. He has worked as assistant professor at DRIVE department of Bourgogne university in France as well as a post-doc at university of Troyes, CESI school, and Eurecom research institute, in France. He researches resources management and security challenges of 5G network slicing in the context of H2020 European projects including MonB5G, 5GDrones, InDiD, and 5G-INSIGHT. His research interests also include 5G and Beyond networks, Explainable AI, and machine/deep learning for wireless networks.Dr. Zakaria Abou El Houda received the Ph.D. degree in computer science from the University of Montreal, Montreal, QC, Canada, and the Ph.D. degree in computer engineering from the University of Technology of Troyes, Troyes, France. He is currently a professor with the Energy, Materials, and Telecommunications Center of the National Institute of Scientific Research (INRS), Canada. I am also a member of the INRS-UQO Joint Research Unit in Cybersecurity. Prior to joining INRS, He served as a research scientist in various institutions, contributing to significant research projects on the application of machine learning for intrusion detection systems, and studying the explainability and robustness of these systems. His current research interests include applied AI for intrusion detection systems, security in distributed/federated machine learning, and Blockchain for network security.
